I bought of land two miles square	A
I knew not it contained a bear	A
I never thought there would be any	B
But alas I found many	B
The bush was thick and mat and tangle	C
It made it a perfect jungle	C
But one mile square of good dry land	D
Was enough for me to take in hand	D
Swamp I could reach but when frozen	E
Then I saw bears by the dozen	E
Thick as monkies in Africa	F
And many a strange trick I saw	G
Gamboling with the greatest ease	H
High up the trunks of the big trees	H
While some were swinging from branches	I
And hanging on them with their haunches	I
But quietly I then tilled my farm	J
The bears at first done me no harm	J
Till one night I was roused by dogs	I
And found a bear was at my hogs	I
He threw a pig across each shoulder	K
And there I was a sad beholder	K
But to the house I quickly run	E
For to procure my loaded gun	E
And as he could not run but slow	L
So heavy laden through the snow	L
I him full soon did overtake	M
And his courage quick I did shake	M
For by the leg my good bold dog	N
He bravely caught the thievish rogue	O
And this move made him soon fork o'er	K
To me at once the largest porker	K
For moment squeeze it did pig stun	E
But up he rose and quick he run	E
The bear now scared his only hope	P
To let at once the other pig drop	Q
I shot the bear right through the eyes	I
And secured a valued prize	I
There's nothing I love so to eat	R
In winter time as the bear's meat	R
So a victory I soon won	E
And sold for high price grease and skin	S
The bears on honey love to thrive	T
One morn was wrecked my best beehive	T
That day I was to sell the honey	B
For to raise some ready money	B
But bear my views he did despise	I
And proudly carried off the prize	I
That night I set a good spring gun	E
With rails I built for him a run	E
Open all way to hive of bees	I
He tried again a hive to seize	I
But all his efforts were in vain	U
He sprung the gun and he was slain	U
O'er the fact I felt quite funny	B
It well repaid me for my honey	B
One bear was playing on me joke	V
Carrying off all my young stock	W
I set my trap built round it fence	I
Resolved he ne'er would get from thence	I
But at the first he did me hoax	I
For he was cunning as a fox	I
He dug under and stole my bait	X
But I next sunk trap and sealed his fate	X
My good iron trap again it caught	Y
A great bear but it came to naught	Z
Breakfast he had at my expense	I
And he then showed wondrous sense	I
Trap he picked up with greatest ease	I
And dashed it to pieces on the trees	I
But blacksmith soon did it repair	A
For I was bound to have that bear	A
I attached to trap a heavy clog	A2
It was like lifting a small log	N
I drove in it some sharp iron spikes	I
Which would cut deep each time he strikes	I
He tried again to steal my bait	X
And break my trap at the old rate	X
But he soon dashed out his own brains	I
His carcass it brought me great gains	I
A neighbour man who would not work	B2
I thought that he did steal my pork	C2
But at last I found long black hairs	I
Then I knew it was the bears	I
I put through barrels rods of iron	D2
So they a bear neck would environ	D2
And rods together they would snap	E2
I found him choked quite dead in trap	E2
Since then my strife with bears did cease	I
Now many years I've lived in peace	I
